Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki had met with Omisore on Monday, September 24 to canvass support for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the rerun election.

Saraki visited Omisore alongside his aide, Bamikole Omisore, who is a cousin to the SDP candidate.

Fayemi had visited Omisore on Tuesday, September 25, in the latter’s residence at Oduduwa Estate, Ibadan road, Ile-Ife, Osun state.

Fayemi, however, told newsmen that his visit was not on political issues, but personal.

“Don’t you know that I am Omisore’s in-law and I am free to visit him anytime I wish? Therefore my purpose of coming to Omisore is neither on political issue nor rerun election coming up on Thursday. But I came to visit him to show my concern and care for his welfare,” he told journalists.
